Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Kaffeemaschine mit einem Filterhalter, in den ein Filter zum Befüllen mit Kaffeemehl einsetzbar ist, und einem Halter für den Filterhalter, an dem der Filterhalter lösbar fixiert werden kann, wobei in der fixierten Position des Filterhalters ein mit Kaffee befüllbarer Behälter unter einem Auslass des Filterhalters angeordnet ist.The present invention relates to a coffee machine with a filter holder into which a filter for filling with ground coffee can be used, and a holder for the filter holder to which the filter holder can be releasably fixed, wherein in the fixed position of the filter holder a container can be filled with coffee an outlet of the filter holder is arranged.

Es sind Kaffeemaschinen bekannt, bei denen eine Brüheinheit heißes Wasser in einen Filterhalter einleitet, in dem ein Filterpapiereinsatz mit Kaffeemehl angeordnet ist. Am Boden des Filterhalters ist ein Auslass vorgesehen, damit der gebrühte Kaffee in einen unter dem Filterhalter angeordneten Behälter eingefüllt wird. Der Filterhalter ist dabei meist in eine Führung einschiebbar, die an einem oberen Rand des Filterhalters angeordnet ist. Zum Wechseln des Filters muss dann zunächst der Filterhalter aus dem Einfüllbereich für heißes Wasser entfernt werden und kann dann für die Entsorgung des verbrauchten Filterpapiereinsatzes frei bewegt werden. Für das Herausnehmen des Filterhalters sind somit zahlreiche Schritte durchzuführen, was als mühsam empfunden wird. Zudem besteht das Problem, dass der Filterhalter in einer eindeutigen Position oberhalb des Behälters positioniert werden muss, damit sichergestellt ist, dass der Behälter auch unterhalb des Auslasses angeordnet ist. Gerade wenn am Auslass ein verschließbares Ventil vorgesehen ist, muss der Behälter relativ zu dem Filterhalter exakt positioniert sein. Viele Kaffeemaschinen bieten keine Sicherheit gegen eine Fehlpositionierung für den Filterhalter.
Die EP 0 655 213 B1 offenbart einen Filterhalter, der durch Nocken, die auf einem Filterhalter-Absetzbügel angebracht sind, gesichert ist, indem Aussparungen, die an dem Filterhalter angeordnet sind, die in die Nocken eingreifen. Dabei ist der Filterhalter vor allem in vertikaler Richtung auf dem Absetzbügel gesichert.

At the bottom of the filter holder an outlet is provided so that the brewed coffee is poured into a container disposed under the filter holder. The filter holder is usually inserted into a guide which is arranged on an upper edge of the filter holder. To change the filter then first the filter holder must be removed from the filling area for hot water and can then be moved freely for the disposal of the used filter paper insert. For the removal of the filter holder thus numerous steps are carried out, which is perceived as cumbersome. In addition, there is the problem that the filter holder must be positioned in a unique position above the container to ensure that the container is also located below the outlet. Just when a closable valve is provided at the outlet, the container must be positioned accurately relative to the filter holder. Many coffee machines offer no security against incorrect positioning of the filter holder.
The EP 0 655 213 B1 discloses a filter holder secured by cams mounted on a filter holder settling yoke by having recesses disposed on the filter holder which engage the cams. The filter holder is secured especially in the vertical direction on the Absetzbügel.
DE 103 35 824 A1 discloses a locking device for a filter holder, which is pivotally mounted and locked to the housing for a breakthrough is provided with a spring element on the housing and a hook on the filter holder is intended to engage in the opening.

The lever 22 is further connected via a bendable web 24 with a plate-shaped portion 25 of the actuating element 9. On the actuating element 9, one or more guide elements 26 are formed, which cooperate with guide elements on the handle 8, to store the actuating element 9 slidably on the handle 8.

Die beiden Riegel 21 sind über eine Feder 28 nach außen vorgespannt, wobei an der Außenseite der Riegel 21 eine Anlaufschräge 27 ausgebildet ist, um die Riegel 21 beim Einschieben in den Halter 7 zusammenzudrücken.The two bars 21 are biased by a spring 28 to the outside, wherein on the outside of the bolt 21, a run-on slope 27 is formed to compress the latch 21 when inserted into the holder 7.

In Figur 4 ist der Filterhalter 6 in der am Halter 7 montierten Position gezeigt. Die Öffnungen 23 sind drehbar an dem Filterhalter 6 gelagert und die Riegel 21 werden durch die Feder 28 nach außen gedrückt und durchgreifen dabei einen Rand 60 an der Unterseite des Filterhalters 6. Der Rand 60 läuft keilförmig zusammen und umfasst eine Spitze 61, wobei der Rand 60 und die Spitze 61 in eine im Wesentlichen V-förmige Aufnahme an dem balkenförmigen Halter 7 einschiebbar sind. Ferner ist das Ventil 15 zu erkennen, das über den Hebel 16 betätigbar ist.In FIG. 4 the filter holder 6 is shown in the mounted on the holder 7 position. The openings 23 are rotatably mounted on the filter holder 6 and the latch 21 are pressed by the spring 28 to the outside and thereby pass through an edge 60 on the underside of the filter holder 6. The edge 60 is in a wedge shape and includes a tip 61, wherein the edge 60 and the tip 61 in a substantially V-shaped receptacle on the bar-shaped holder 7 are inserted. Furthermore, the valve 15 can be seen, which is actuated via the lever 16.

In der verriegelten Position greifen die Riegel 21 in Aufnahmen an dem Halter 7 ein, so dass der Filterhalter 6 gegen ein Abziehen von dem Halter 7 gesichert ist.In the locked position, the latches 21 engage in receptacles on the holder 7, so that the filter holder 6 is secured against removal from the holder 7.

Die Montage des Filterhalters 6 ohne den Verriegelungsmechanismus ist in Figur 5 gezeigt. Der Halter 7 ist als Haltebalken ausgebildet, der eine im Wesentlichen V-förmige Aufnahme 73 aufweist, die von zwei Schenkeln 70 umgeben ist. An jedem Schenkel 70 ist an der Innenseite eine Aufnahme 71 für einen Riegel 21 ausgebildet. Die V-förmige Aufnahme 73 umfasst Innenwände 72, die einen Rand 60 an der Unterseite des Filterhalters 6 sowie die Spitze 61 umgeben. Der Filterhalter 6 umfasst zusätzlich einen ringförmigen äußeren Rand 62 im unteren Bereich, der sich bis zu zwei Stegen 63 erstreckt, die an der Unterseite des Griffes 8 ausgebildet sind. Der Rand 60, die Spitze 61, der Rand 62 sowie die Stege 63 sind so ausgebildet, dass sie eine ebene untere Auflagefläche für den Filterhalter 6 ausbilden.The mounting of the filter holder 6 without the locking mechanism is shown in FIG. The holder 7 is designed as a holding beam, which has a substantially V-shaped receptacle 73 which is surrounded by two legs 70. On each leg 70, a receptacle 71 for a latch 21 is formed on the inside. The V-shaped receptacle 73 comprises inner walls 72 which surround a rim 60 on the underside of the filter holder 6 and the tip 61. The filter holder 6 additionally comprises an annular outer edge 62 in the lower region, which extends up to two webs 63, which are formed on the underside of the handle 8. The edge 60, the tip 61, the edge 62 and the webs 63 are formed so that they form a flat lower bearing surface for the filter holder 6.

In den Figuren 6 und 7 ist der Verriegelungsmechanismus 20 des Filterhalters 6 im Detail gezeigt. In Figur 6 ist der Verriegelungsmechanismus in der Verriegelungsposition gezeigt, bei der die Feder 28 die Riegel 21 nach außen drückt. Wird nun das Betätigungselement 9 zu dem Griff 8 hingezogen, wird die in Figur 7 gezeigte Position erreicht. Durch das Ziehen des Betätigungselementes 9 nach rechts in Figur 7 werden auch die Stege 24 entsprechend verschoben, wodurch der Hebel 22 um die Achse in der Öffnung 23 verschwenkt. Durch das Verschwenken der Hebel 22 werden die Riegel 21 gegen die Kraft der Feder 28 nach innen gedrückt und gelangen somit außer Eingriff von den Aufnahmen 71 an dem Halter 7. Der Filterhalter 6 kann nun ohne Widerstand von dem Halter 7 abgezogen werden, um einen Filter für Kaffeemehl zu wechseln. Danach kann der Filterhalter 6 wieder in den Halter 7 eingeschoben werden, wobei dann das Betätigungselement 9 wahlweise angezogen werden kann, um die Riegel 21 zusammenzudrücken, oder beim Einschieben des Filterhalters 6 gelangen die Anlaufschrägen 27 an den Riegeln in Eingriff mit den Schenkeln 70 des Halters 7 und werden dadurch zusammengedrückt. Dann kann beim Einschieben des Filterhalters 6 ein Verrasten der Riegel 21 in den Aufnahmen 71 erfolgen.In the FIGS. 6 and 7 the locking mechanism 20 of the filter holder 6 is shown in detail. In FIG. 6 the locking mechanism is shown in the locking position, in which the spring 28 pushes the bolt 21 to the outside. If now the actuator 9 is attracted to the handle 8, the position shown in Figure 7 is reached. By pulling the actuating element 9 to the right in FIG. 7 also the webs 24 are displaced accordingly, whereby the lever 22 pivots about the axis in the opening 23. By pivoting the lever 22, the bolt 21 are pressed against the force of the spring 28 inwardly and thus get out of engagement of the receptacles 71 on the holder 7. The filter holder 6 can now be subtracted without resistance from the holder 7 to a filter to change for ground coffee. Thereafter, the filter holder 6 can be pushed back into the holder 7, in which case the actuator 9 can be selectively tightened to compress the latch 21, or when inserting the filter holder 6 reach the chamfers 27 on the bars into engagement with the legs 70 of the holder 7 and are compressed by it. Then, when inserting the filter holder 6, a latching of the latch 21 in the receptacles 71 can take place.

In Figur 8 ist die Verriegelungsposition der Riegel 21 im Detail dargestellt. Die Riegel 21 werden über die Feder 28 in die Aufnahmen 71 gedrückt, so dass ein Abziehen des Filterhalters 6 verhindert wird. Durch die Vorsehung von zwei Riegeln 21 können dabei Toleranzen ausgeglichen werden, die zwangsläufig vorhanden sind.In FIG. 8 the locking position of the latch 21 is shown in detail. The latch 21 are pressed by the spring 28 in the receptacles 71, so that a removal of the filter holder 6 is prevented. By the provision of two bars 21 while tolerances can be compensated, which are inevitable.

In dem gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel sind zwei Riegel 21 zum Verriegeln des Filterhalters 6 an dem Halter 7 vorgesehen. Es ist natürlich auch möglich, nur einen Riegel 21 oder mehr als zwei Riegel 21 vorzusehen. Ferner kann das Betätigungselement 9 statt durch eine Schiebebewegung auch durch andere Mechaniken ein Entriegeln oder Verriegeln bewirken. Zudem können für die Verriegelungsmechanismen auch mehrere Bauteile und andere Verriegelungsmechaniken eingesetzt werden.In the embodiment shown, two latches 21 are provided for locking the filter holder 6 to the holder 7. Of course, it is also possible to provide only one bar 21 or more than two bars 21. Furthermore, the actuating element 9 instead of a sliding movement by other mechanisms cause unlocking or locking. In addition, several components and other locking mechanisms can be used for the locking mechanisms.
